Perhaps I am wrong and she was wearing elements from the Kent necklace -- but I don't think so.
She definitely wasn't wearing any part of the so called "crown rubies". That necklace didn't exist at the time. At the time Queen Victoria was still using it as her opal necklace.
Nor is Queen Alexandra wearing any of the sapphires later given to Princess Mary, Princess Royal, Countess of Harewood. All of her sapphires can be identified and traced to other sources.
Hopefully, Knightship will enter the discussion here. Both you and he may be correct!
